Well its taken about 3 weeks, but I’ve finally moved all the stuff from the Blogger blog site and all the newer stuff from Joomla into Serendipity, so its all here under one roof so to speak.

It really is the worst house in a great area. The Sotoura valley has this lovely little community that we have become familiar with over the last year and really loved.
So now my entries will be split up abit as I will be writing about me and Shimoda. The site is
